Bracing


My morning swim is not quite as shocking as this man's experience in the unheated outdoor lido on Parliament Hill in north London.


None-the-less, with the humidity down to 50%, and the angle of the sun causing it to shine on the pool for less hours during the day, it is my own Neva-esq experience for the initial couple of lengths. The pool and its surround, along with other major common areas of the condo will begin a period of renovation in the coming year. I hope. The plan has only been two years in the making. I took the second picture (and others) in August in anticipation of the renovation project starting, and thinking I would need to ensure I had "before" pictures in the bag ahead of the work commencing. Ever the optimist, as you can see.
